Need help with WMP 11 wont play DVD or live streaming shows now

[curt]

Hello, I'm posting here because no one is replying to post at WMP page. I
have windows XP home SP2. and use WMP 11. I used to beable to put a DVD
movie in my DVD player and WMP 11 would open and I could watch the DVD movie.
And Now I can't watch live streaming web sites that use WMP to see the show.
I can still play my CD music. I don'r know if this started after last
teusdays auto update for WMP 11 at Kb/954154? I can't even watch the DVD now
using realplayer now either. They both used to play my DVD movies. I hope
some one can help me with this softwear problem I have now or whatever it is
thats not working now?

WHICH "WMP page"? There is, however, a good multimedia newsgroup for
that.

Yes I know I did not post ? at WMP newsgroup because no one is answering any
of the other persons questions there at all. So I thought about posting here
to see if anyone can help me to figure out why my WMP 11 is now not playing
back my DVD movies or when i go to web site the uses WMP to stream live I
can't see that live web stream either? Can anyone help me to figure out why
my WMP 11 is not working and what can I do to fix this? Thanks

Well, if all else fails, you can always consider rolling back using System
Restore to when it was ok. Of course, anything installed since then would
have to be reinstalled.

No I don't want to do a roll back with system restore. I'm sure everyone elso
got the same auto update I got and they are not asking questions why there
WMP 11 is now not working, so most likely its not that. Is there a way
to figure out what is missing on my hard drive why I can't watch DVD movies
now? Or to do something else to ck if I'm missing some softwear now? or
how to ck if I'm missimg something on my WMP 11 program? thanks
